Best Answer

Different strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae produce different proportions of carbon dioxide and alcohol. Baker's yeast is a blend of several strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae chosen for their flavor and ability to make carbon dioxide, which causes bread to rise. Brewer's yeast is made of strains chosen for their alcohol-producing ability and tends to have a bitter flavor. Brewer's yeast is considered an inactive yeast while baker's yeast is an active yeast. In an active yeast the yeast cells are still alive, whereas they are killed in the process of making inactive yeasts, like brewer's yeast.

Brewers yeast supplemet is usually dead yeast recovered from brewing beer.

Normal yeast and brewers' yeast are very similar but yeasts selected for brewing tolerate high levels of alcohol and have useful properties such as being easily cleared from the brewed beverage.
